Yeah. They cut out a good minute or two. Some of the cut footage included..
Max eating the lizard and then a longer cut of him throwing the bedroll in the Interceptor before taking off.
More footage of Max being captured and tortured including being stripped down and thrown into a cage suspended in a chamber.
Footage of Immortan Joe seeing Max caged and saying "It is by my hand, you will rise".
Footage of Immortan Joe and Nux in a chamber with the words "Who Killed the World?" carved on the ground in a spiral.
More chase footage. Mutant guitarists seen on the PA truck with flames coming out the guitars.
More dialog from Furiosa and others.
Extended chase through the storm. Max breaking free and trying to stop Nux who is in the process of trying to immolate himself by breaking a bunch of fuel or flammable liquid cables and spray painting his mouth silver and lighting a flare while proclaiming "It's a lovely day!". Max punches him through the windshield and Nux's car collides with another. Max is thrown off the car in mid-air and it cuts to black. When it fades in Max is walking through the dust and dirt with Nux over his shoulder.

I wonder how many kids in the real world will emulate Max's actions in that scene, using real animals?

No, not only the psychotic ones. Movies and TV shows teach viewers what is and isn't normal behavior. Abundant studies exist which demonstrate that viewers, especially young viewers, become desensitized to the violence they see on screen and are more likely to act out that violence in real life.
But this is really a much larger issue than whether or not some kids will literally stomp on animals because they watched that scene. It is a much, much larger issue about having respect for animal life and not snuffing it out for no damned reason.
No trying to add oil to the fire but max has done worse things than stomping a lizard. He killed alot of people in the original movies. Aren't children replicating those acts?
I've seen alot of action/horror (violent) movies as a kid, played shooter videogames and so on and i turned out reasonably normal.

in the longer teaser ,?or is what weve seen all we get?
Not in the trailer no. Honestly though, aside from maybe a few minutes...we've probably seen all the footage of the BoB in the trailer.
Also FR related but it looks like Sideshow Collectibles might be producing some goods:
And further down the road? “I'm not sure how or if we'll get involved, but the new Mad Max: Fury Road has us interested. There are quite a few Road Warrior fans on the staff, including myself.
Also Empire Magazine I think reveals their cover for the new issue tomorrow. They did mention they have a lengthy interview with George Miller in the new issue so it could be a FR cover.

No, Max killed murderers and rapists in the original movies. Those killings were justified, and served the greater good.
But again, now that we've learned Max eats the lizard, this debate has become moot.
As to this idea that you turned out reasonably normal despite being exposed to violent films as a child, you're just one person, and you probably didn't have other co-occuring factors that would predispose you to violence. Take a kid who's been exposed to too much lead paint while his brain was still forming, a kid who got hit a lot by his parents, and saturate his mind with violent TV shows and movies, and you might very well get a different result.

then isn't the problem the lead paint and abuse, rather than the movies and tv shows? i mean, assuming you agree that the vast majority of people who watch entertainment that contains violent imagery do not replicate those acts.
It's been some time since I posted but after reading comments about pure blood, mutants, cults, beautiful women, and now the trailer I am quite sure that I've seen this concept before. Oh ya....
